École vs Smart Directions Full Version

Une phrase est saisie au clavier puis les mots sont découpés automatiquement. Il faut alors les déplacer dans les bonnes cases. Les élèves peuvent aussi travailler par deux. Par exemple, le premier propose et écrit une phrase, l'autre élève doit classer correctement les mots selon leur nature. Des outils interactifs d’annotation (crayon et surligneur) sont également disponibles.

Designed by a speech-language pathologist, Smart Directions is a fun and easy-to-use application created to support children with difficulties in both oral and written comprehension. During the game, children follow directions using illustrated game boards, each based on themed categories. Directions can be presented in writing or spoken using text-to-speech, depending on the child’s needs. Eight types of directions are included in the app: • Short, simple directions using the same action word • Short, simple directions using varied action words • Long directions using the same action word • Long directions using varied action words • Short, inference-based directions • Long, complex or inference-based directions • Two-step directions with temporal or sequential elements • Inference-based directions with temporal or sequential elements The eight game boards are paired with combinations of directions that increase in difficulty, allowing for comprehension goals to be worked on progressively. A brief reinforcement game pleasantly concludes each work session. Additionally, an integrated editor allows custom direction lists to be created. Available on iPad.
